Without a Monday there wouldn't be a friday. I know what you mean about the repetitive thing, but I quit the corporate world and started my own business (computer repair -- mobile). I go different places all the time, meet different people and do different things. It's great. So much better than real work. And if you need a break you just say you're all booked up today and then go do what you need to.

Down side -- no medical benefits -- so you're wife will still have to keep her job -- oh well.
